PASSED AWAY.

The Late Richard Treat MerwIn-End
 of an Active Lifelong a Prominent
 Builder Here.
 The death of Richard T. Merwin, the
 builder, who has resided for many years past on Eld street near State, was quite unex- pected He had retired shortly after 8 o'clock. His wife asked him if he needed her help, but he said he did not and retired. Shortly after ward she went to his room and the light was out. She called to him, but he made no answer and upon investigation it was found that he had passed away. He lay as peacefully and naturally as one sleeping. Deceased had not been out on the street since last Friday, but alarming indications had intervened and his health had seemed about as it had been for some time past. He had been great sufferer for three years past and two years ago submitted to painful surgical operation which did not prove successful.
 The deceased was born in Milford, this State, in 1916, his father, Thomas Merwin, having a residence there He came to New Haven at the age of F years and learned the trade of carpenter and joiner of his broth ST, the late Hon. Ira Merwin, who was for many years man of note and influence here. He went into the business of house building when about 21 years old and was first in partnership with Joseph Clarke. He had been in active business as builder of houses 40 years Merwin's block, corner of State and Bradley streets, was his building and all over New Haven can be seen the proofs of his skill in construction in prominent and private and public buildings.
 He was man of great physical energy and strong force of character and a man of ln- tegritv and honor. He took an interest in x1, ] Ht k<Ntr- a selectman and member of the board of relief, and later was for years member of the city's board of compensation, from which he retired two or three years ago. He brought 10 the discharge of his duties the re- suit of his years of experience as Q builder and man of affairs and an unusual sagacity coupled with honesty of purpose. His judg- ment was valuable and looked up to. He was often sought in public matters to give his opinion as a builder in estimating the value of real estate. He was member Of Wooster lodge, F. and A. NJ, and many years ago served in the National Blues. He was bluff, hearty, cheery man, of strong physique. He was one of the founders Of St. John's Episcopal church, State street.
 Mir. Merwins first wife was Charlotte Clark of Orange, Ct. Of this marriage four chil~ dren survive. His second wife Miss Charlotte Jones, of Maine. There are five children of this marriage, four daughters and one son.
 His widow is a member of the Wooster Place Baptist church. Of the daughters Miss Rena T. Merwn is a valued teacher at the WeIch school. Of the boys James is in a business house in New York and is the junior partner-the house of Merwin, 6 Co, dealers in firearms. The senior partner is his uncle. He leaves a brother also in this city, MT. Lewis Merwin, proprietor of the fish market on State street near Bradley. and a sister aged about eighty. The funeral takes place Friday afternoon.
